this post is from a reputed source, I see no reason why it should be taken down. As far as I am concerned, this is not a subjective thing, the crack down on Amnesty International in the country is not subject to individual opinions.



The Indian government is answerable to the people, Amnesty International is answerable to the government, the courts and perhaps its "donors".

There is a robust system for the former, not so much for the later. AI can complain all it wants but they are just bringing in more scrutiny into their activities.

Wikipedia is not a good source for anything remotely controversial at this time. One of the founders did a great post on it:

If you do read Wikipedia, always do two things:

1) Read the Talk page

2) Go to the history and read the same article from 2005 ~ 2010


lol, dude, the criticism is mostly from authoritarian countries, China, Iran, Russia, or countries that violate human rights, Sri Lanka(the entire issue with tamils), or US(Guantánamo Bay).
